Strongest Replication

Wait! When he reached the position that Elder Huang had pointed out, Chu Zhongtian was slightly stunned.    

This was because the position that Elder Huang had pointed out was randomly scattered with rocks of different sizes. He looked at where the stones were and found more and more stones in front of him.    

Without waiting for Elder Huang's reminder, Chu Zhongtian stepped on one stone after another. He drew towards the places with more rocks in front of him. He drew for tens of thousands of meters. He was completely stunned by a mountain that was dozens of kilometers long and thousands of meters tall in front of him.    

At the bottom of the river that was tens of thousands of meters long, there was actually a broad mountain that was submerged, and the mountain still had plants that could not be grown in the water.    

"Elder Huang, what is going on with this mountain in front of us?" Pointing at the mountain in front of him, Chu Zhongtian asked in a puzzled tone.    

The mountain peak was made up of soil and stones. After a long period of time, it dried up and eventually became a solid mountain peak.    

When the mountain peak was submerged in water, the soil that could connect to the rocks would gradually soften and fall off. It was impossible to maintain the shape of the mountain peak in the river, unless the entire mountain peak was formed by a huge rock.    

If it was completely formed by a huge rock, then there would not be any vegetation on the surface of the mountain, so he was completely confused by the mountain peak in front of him.    

"Chu, row nine hundred meters east!" There was no reason for Chu Zhongtian's question, so Elder Huang continued to instruct.    

Chu Zhongtian did not refute. He obediently followed his instructions and drew 900 meters to the east.    

When he stabilized his body and looked forward, he unexpectedly found that at the bottom of the mountain in front of him, there was a hole about two meters tall.    

"Chu, let's go in!" Originally, he wanted to let Elder Huang use the divine sense to take a look at the situation inside the hole. Therefore... After ensuring that it was safe, he would choose whether to enter or not. However, before he could even open his mouth to remind him... ... Elder Huang's voice rang out.    

Being ten thousand meters deep at the bottom of the river, Chu Zhongtian was unable to adjust his emotions through breathing. He could only use the vital spirit to calm himself down and then cut into the cave.    

It was as if he had passed through an invisible barrier. After entering the hole, the river water immediately disappeared. Chu Zhongtian felt as if he had entered a completely new environment.    

Looking around, Chu Zhongtian found himself in a long tunnel. The depths of the passageway was pitch black, as if he could not see the end of it. Taking a deep breath, he immediately felt the incomparably dense Qi of Heavenly Desolates. A hint of surprise flashed across his face.    

"Elder Huang, this place is?" Chu Zhongtian asked with some doubt, but also some uncertainty.    

"Chu, the prophets of Qin Empire are right. There is indeed a Barren Lode hidden in this valley. As for what grade this Barren Lode belongs to, we still need to go deeper to find out!" After searching for half a month, the Barren Lode suddenly appeared in front of them. Elder Huang should be happy, but he really couldn't be happy right now.    

The appearance of the Barren Lode had directly proved that the prophet of Qin Empire had broken through to the legendary Stage. This was the supreme Supreme Stage that thousands of prophets in the Central Domain had pursued for their entire lives.    

After getting a positive answer from Elder Huang, Chu Zhongtian thought that he would be overjoyed and even burst into wild laughter. However, he calmed down in an instant.    

He took out a luminous pearl from the storage bag. With the help of the luminous pearl, Chu Zhongtian began to follow the tunnel that was either dug by humans or formed naturally. He began to go deeper into the ore vein step by step.    

Seeing the abnormally calm Chu Zhongtian, Elder Huang quickly put away his complicated thoughts and used the divine sense to help Chu Zhongtian enter the ore vein.    

"Chu, just a little bit!" After walking for less than a hundred meters, Elder Huang used the divine sense to observe his surroundings. Suddenly, he gave a warning.    

"Elder Huang, what happened?" In the dark and silent tunnel, other than Chu Zhongtian's footsteps, breathing, and the sound of his heart, everything was so quiet that it was scary. Elder Huang suddenly reminded. Chu Zhongtian thought that there was some danger, so he subconsciously took out the Natal Spirit Blade. He put on a vigilant posture.    

"Chu, don't be nervous. Take three steps forward and look at the stone wall on the left!" Elder Huang signaled Chu Zhongtian to relax and ordered.    

Chu Zhongtian did not put away the Natal Spirit Blade. He followed Elder Huang's instructions and took three steps forward. With the help of the luminous pearl, he carefully observed the stone wall on the right. Then he saw a stone that emitted traces of desolate Qi.    

He used the Natal Spirit Blade to dig out the stone. After putting away the Natal Spirit Blade, he tightly gripped the stone that was emitting the Power of Desolates with his right hand. After that, he used the second level of the Overlord Spell to test the Power of Desolates concentration in the stone.    

As the body refining technique absorbed the Desolate Qi from the stone, a dense Desolate Qi of Heaven and Earth rushed into his body from the stone, making him clearly feel that his body was becoming stronger.    

Three minutes later, the rock in his hand had completely turned into a pile of powder.    

Both of his hands formed a seal, forming a pillar that could test Physical Body Level. Then, he punched the pillar with a straight hook. Finally, there were thirteen numbers carved on the pillar, and it barely lit up.    

"Elder Huang, this is the Barren Stone!" A stone that could contain the Qi of Heavenly Desolates was like a spirit stone that contained the spiritual Qi. Therefore, Chu Zhongtian was sure that the stone in his hand was the Barren Stone. At the same time, through the absorption of the Heavenly Desolate Qi, ___'s body had improved. It allowed him to confirm that the grade of the Barren Stone in his hand should not be low.    

"That's right. Through the absorption of the Heavenly Desolate Qi just now, judging from the energy of the Heavenly Desolates that instantly gushed out from the Barren Stone, this is a low grade Level 9 Barren Stone." Not only did Elder Huang confirm that the stone in his hand was a Barren Stone, he also gave out the true grade of the Barren Stone.    

He raised his palm and blew with force. When the powder on his palm dispersed, Chu Zhongtian continued to venture deeper into the ore mine. For a period of time, he went through the walls of the tunnel. He kept finding remnants of the Barren Stone. The lowest grade of the Mid Level was the Ninth Grade Low Rank Barren Stone he found at the beginning. The highest grade was Level 8 Intermediate.    

After more than two hours of going deeper into the tunnel, Chu Zhongtian finally stopped after walking for about thirty miles. He looked ahead with a serious expression, and began to discuss with Elder Huang.    

"Elder Huang, according to your experience, is the tunnel underneath our feet man-made or naturally formed?"    

"Chu, to be honest, this tunnel doesn't seem to be naturally formed. It doesn't look like it was man-made either. Instead, it looks like some kind of Wild Beast was forced to pass through the tunnel." Elder Huang replied with uncertainty.    

Unlike Chu Zhongtian, who wholeheartedly ventured into the mineral vein and looked forward to finding a higher grade Barren Stone, while Elder Huang was alert of the dangers around him, he also carefully observed the traces left on the wall when the tunnel was formed.    

Through the traces left on the wall, he suspected that the cause of the tunnel's formation was... It was very likely that some kind of Wild Beast had forcefully passed through the mountain peak. As for exactly what kind of Wild Beast it was... Before he actually saw this Wild Beast, he was unable to make a precise judgment.
